Are you on a 3%+ interest rate? Chances are we can get you a rate which is very close to 2.00% or even slightly under, with up to $6k cashback from the bank/lender, plus an extra cashback from us (your mortgage broker), calculated at 0.16% of your net loan amount.
To save you using a calculator, the 0.16% extra cashback is as follows:
- $250k loan = $400
- $500k loan = $800
- $750k loan = $1200
- $1m loan = $1600
Other terms and conditions of our extra broker cashback:
- Please quote OZBARGAIN16 when you contact us.
- You need to still have the loan until the end of the lender's commission clawback/refund period, which is either 18 or 24 months.
- The broker cashback will be paid after the expiry of the lender's commission clawback period.
- The loan amount applicable will be based on the lender's commission calculation method, which is generally the amount net of redraw & offset.
- Applicable if you contact us in April 2022 and complete application is submitted in April 2022.
- Applicable for either (refinance) or (property purchase), but we will deduct $100 for each additional application or pre-approval extension for the same property.
What about the bank/lender's offers?
Some banks/lenders are offering $2k-$6k cashbacks and you'll get them typically within 1-3 months.
There are often some trade-offs between interest rate and loan features, maximum loan amount, ability for the lender to approve your specific scenario, or the amount of documents/admin work required from you.

What is a comparison rate?
Comparison rate is based on a $150,000 loan over 25 years, where the lender's ongoing fees & one-off fees are divided by $150,000 to obtain a percentage figure. If your loan is much bigger than $150k, your effective percentage rate will be much lower than the comparison rate.
On a fixed rate product, comparison rate also assumes that you never re-negotiate your rate after the end of your fixed rate period. In practice, you can often get a lower variable rate or go on another competitive fixed rate after the end of your initial fixed rate period.
Please note that fixed rates may change up until your settlement day, unless you pay a Rate Lock fee upfront when submitting the application (typically 0.15% of the loan amount).
The majority of the products above only have redraw facility.
Offset account is available on a different product, the rate may be higher and a monthly or annual fee may apply.
Please contact us with your specific scenario for details.
Additional cashback terms and conditions apply as determined by the lender. Typically you cannot have received a cashback from the lender within the previous 12 months. Cashback applies per customer group, except for ME Bank where the cashback can be paid per property if you meet the minimum loan amount per property.
We look forward to helping you save money, or buy a property!
